Firefox prevents Windows from Sleep and Hibernate
Frequently when I hibernate my laptop firefox prevents its (as soon as it enters sleep it wakes up)
when I close firefox it hibernates fine
when I go to powercfg /REQUESTS its the audio card that is driving the wake up
In settings I have turned media.video-wakelock. to FALSE etc and firefox still wakes the computer

Anyone from firefox looking at this????
it is like 90% of the time I cant sleep without shutting down firefox.
This usually happens because Firefox keeps an audio stream “active” in the background—disable all tabs with audio, turn off “Allow websites to play sound,” then restart Firefox, and the system should hibernate normally.
There is no setting for that when I search. But even if there was this does not solve the bug.
When you go to powercfg only rarely is the audio card listed. Most time no info is show when you do /lastwake
